“Dune – Bulgarian Fragment” is a contemporary dance piece that invites Bulgarian women to share their experiences and stories through movement.

With this creation, the Cie Volcà continues its exploration of female representations around the world. After Tunisia, this beautiful project comes to life in Bulgaria, with a group of women of all ages and backgrounds that will participate in two-weeks workshop with the French choreographers. By reinterpreting the duet Dune from the company’s repertoire, these Bulgarian women will collectively engage in a process of appropriation and rewriting of the piece for a unique performance.

On stage, they will present a collective, powerful, and sensitive body, echoing questions of femininity in our societies.

The performance is accompanied by a photographic series highlighting the bodies of the performers. The piece will be followed by a post-performance discussion, offering the audience a moment to exchange with the participants and choreographers.

An invitation to listen, see, and feel what women have to say – in words and in gestures.

Founded in 2018, Company Volcà is based in France. They create performances that address current societal issues and aim to provoke reflection in audiences. Their work is often developed in different locations, adapting to the cultural and social contexts we engage with. https://www.compagnie-volca.com/
